  <p>the input helper takes two special attributes value= and 
  requires=.</p>
  <p>value is used to pass the initial value for the input field. value 
  differs from _value because it works for checkboxes, radio, textarea and 
  select/option too. for a checkbox value should be '' or 'on'. for a radio
  or select/option value should be the _value of the checked/selected 
  item.</p>
  <p>requres should be None, or a validator or a list of validators for the
  value of the field.</p>
